The leaves are arranged in a rosette at the base of the plant and are oblong to lance-shaped with the narrower end towards the base, Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide, with lobes Шаблон:Cvt long and Шаблон:Cvt wide. The flowers are arranged in a cyme of up to five, Шаблон:Cvt long on a peduncle Шаблон:Cvt long, each flower on a pedicel Шаблон:Cvt long with leaf-like bracts at the base. The sepals are elliptic to broadly egg-shaped, about Шаблон:Cvt long and the corolla yellow Шаблон:Cvt long. The lower lobes of the corolla are Шаблон:Cvt long with wings Шаблон:Cvt wide.

Taxonomy and naming

Goodenia salina was first formally described in 2007 by Leigh William Sage and Kelly Anne Shepherd in the journal Nuytsia from material collected near Lake King in 1993.[1][3] The specific epithet (salina) means "saline", referring to the habitat of this species.[1]

Distribution and habitat

This goodenia is only known from two populations north-east of Albany in the Coolgardie and Mallee biogeographic regions, where it grows in well-drained saline soils on dunes near salt pans.[1][2]

Conservation status

Goddenia salina is classified as "Priority Two" by the Western Australian Government Department of Parks and Wildlife[2] meaning that it is poorly known and from only one or a few locations.[4]
